title: Shear bond strength of a composite resin to differently silicoated base metal alloys.
abstract: This study was undertaken to determine the shear bond strength of Charisma composite resin to both thermal and pyrogenic silicoated base metal alloys namely, Duracast MS, Rexillium V and Wironit extra-hard. The bonded specimens were subjected to three stress treatments prior to shear bond testing. The results indicated that both silicoating techniques significantly improved shear bond strengths to sandblasted alloys, whereas wet heat and thermocycling treatments reduced the bond strengths, except for pyrogenic silicoated Wironit. Thermocycling was more detrimental to thermal than to pyrogenic silicoated Rexillium nad Wironit specimens.
